The group of spikes at the end of a stegosaur's tail is called a "Thagomizer," after a "Far Side" cartoon in which a caveman lecturing to a group describes this region as "the Thag-o-mizer, in honor of the late Thag Simmons." This started out as a joke among researchers, but has found its way into actual anatomical parlance.
